Installation Information

Before unpacking and manoeuvring your fridge freezer please take some time to familiarise yourself with the following points.

- Position away from direct sunlight and away from any heat source such as a radiator.

- Your appliance should be at least 50 cm away from stoves, Gas ovens and heater cores, and should be at least 5 cm away from electrical ovens.

- Do not expose your fridge freezer to moisture or rain.

- Your fridge freezer should be positioned at least 20mm away from another freezer.

- Clearance of at least 150 mm is required at the top and back of your fridge freezer. Do not place anything on top of your fridge freezer.

- For safe operation it is important that your fridge freezer is safe and balanced. The adjustable feet are used to level your fridge freezer. Make sure that your appliance is level before placing any foodstuffs inside it.

Before Using your Fridge

SHARP SJ-F1526E0I-EU - Before Using your Fridge - 1

  • Before setting up your fridge freezer, check for any visible damage. Do not install or use your fridge freezer if it is damaged
  • When using your fridge freezer for the first time, keep it in an upright position for at least 3 hours before plugging into the mains. This will allow efficient operation and prevents damage to the compressor.
  • You may notice a light odour when using your fridge freezer for the first time. This is perfectly normal and will fade away as the fridge starts to cool.

CHAPTER -1: GENERAL WARNINGS

NO FROST technology

Differs from many other standard fridge freezers. Other appliances may experience ice in the freezer compartment due to the opening of the doors and humidity caused by the food. In such appliances defrosting is required. They have to be turned off periodically, the food inside moved and the ice removed.

Your "no frost" fridge freezer prevents such problems by evenly distributing in the fridge and freezer compartments through the use of a fan. This cools your food evenly and uniformly, preventing humidity and freezing.

After that, baskets and / or shelves removed from the compartment should be re-fitted and the food placed in the relevant compartment.

Notes:

  • Nutrifresh mode should not be activated if Zone 1 is being used as a freezer.
  • Food should not be put in front of the fan.

Warnings for temperature settings

  • Your temperature adjustments will not be deleted when an energy breakdown occurs.
  • The ambient temperature, temperature of the freshly stored food and how often the door is opened, affects the temperature in the refrigerator compartment. If required, change the temperature setting.
  • It is not recommended that you operate your fridge in environments colder than 10°C .
  • The thermostat setting should be set by taking into consideration how often the fresh food and freezer doors are opened and closed, how much food is stored in the refrigerator and the environment in which and the positioning of the appliance.
  • We recommend that when first using the fridge freezer it should be left running for 24 hours uninterrupted to ensure it is completely cooled. Do not open the fridge doors, or put food inside for this period.
  • Your fridge freezer has a 5 minute built in delay function, designed to prevent damage to the compressor. When power is applied to your fridge freezer, it will begin to operate normally after 5 minutes.

CHAPTER -3: USING YOUR FRIDGE FREEZER

- Your fridge is designed to operate in the ambient temperature intervals stated in the standards, according to the climate class stated in the information label. It is not recommended that your fridge is operated in the environments which are out of the stated temperature intervals in terms of cooling efficiency.

Note: If the ambient temperature is higher than 38° C, the compartment temperature cannot be set to -22° C, -23° C or -24° C. It can only be set to -16° C, -17° C, -18° C, -19° C, -20° C or -21° C.

Temperature indicator

In order to help you better set your refrigerator, we have equipped it with a temperature indicator located in the coldest area.

To better store the food in your refrigerator, especially in the coldest area, make sure the message "OK" appears on the temperature indicator. If « OK » does not appear, this means temperature has not been set properly

It may be difficult to see the indicator, make sure it is properly lit. Each time the temperature setting device is changed, wait for the stabilisation of the temperature inside the appliance before proceeding, if necessary,

with a new temperature setting. Please change the position of the temperature setting device progressively and wait at least 12 hours before starting a new check and potential change.

NOTE: Following repeated openings (or prolonged opening) of the door or after putting fresh food into the appliance, it is normal for the indication "OK" not to appear in the temperature setting indicator. If there is an abnormal build up of ice crystals (bottom wall of the appliance) on the refrigerator compartment, evaporator (overloaded appliance, high room temperature, frequent door openings), put the temperature setting device on a lower position until compressor off periods are obtained again.

Store food in the coldest area of the refrigerator.

SHARP SJ-F1526E0I-EU - Store food in the coldest area of the refrigerator. - 1

Your foods will be better stored if you put them in the most appropriate cooling area. The coldest area is just above the crisper.

The following symbol indicates the coldest area of your refrigerator.

To be sure to have a low temperature in this area, make sure the shelf is located at the level of this symbol, as shown in the illustration.

The upper limit of the coldest area is indicated by the lower side of the sticker (head of the arrow). The coldest area upper shelf must be at the same level with the arrow head. The coldest area is below this level.

Cleaning

• Before cleaning your fridge freezer, turn your mains supply off and remove the plug from the socket. - Do not wash your fridge freezer by pouring water on to it. - Use a warm, soapy cloth or sponge to wipe the interior and exterior of your fridge freezer. - Carefully remove all shelves and drawers by sliding upwards or outwards and clean with soapy water. Do not wash in a washing machine or dishwasher. - Do not use solvents, abrasive cleaners, glass cleaners or all purpose cleaning agents to clean your fridge freezer. This may cause damage to the plastic surfaces and other components with the chemicals they contain. - Clean the condenser at the back of your fridge freezer at least once a year with a soft brush or vacuum cleaner.

Make sure that your fridge is unplugged while cleaning.

Cleaning evaporation bowl

Your fridge defrosts automatically. Water produced by defrosting flows to the evaporating container passing through the water collecting groove, and vaporizes here by itself.

Replacing LED Lighting

If your fridge freezer has LED lighting contact the Sharp help desk as this should be changed by authorized personnel only.

CHAPTER -4: FOOD STORAGE GUIDE

• Take care when storing tropical fruit such as pineapples as they can quickly deteriorate in lower temperatures. - Divide and separate food into smaller pieces before storage. - Cover or wrap food to prevent odours. We recommend that you store meat loosely covered as this allows air to circulate around the meat causing the surface to dry slightly, helping to prevent the growth of bacteria. - Do not store food close so that it blocks the crisper air adjustment button.

The table below is a quick guide, showing you the most efficient way to store the major food groups in your refrigerator compartment.

Food Storage Duration Location

Fruits and Vegetables 1 week Loose in Vegetable Holder
Fish and Meat 2-3 Days Wrapped on Glass Shelf
Fresh Cheese 3-4 Days Top Door Shelf
Butter and Margarine 1 Week Top Door Shelf
Bottles, Yogurt and Milk Refer to Packaging Top Door Shelf
Eggs 1 month In Egg Holder

CHAPTER -4: FOOD STORAGE GUIDE

The Freezer Compartment:

You should use the freezer compartments for storing food for long periods and making ice. Aim to freeze fresh food as quickly as possible so that it keeps its taste and appearance. We recommend that you place food you would like to freeze in the upper tray of the freezer compartment for 24 hours before placing it next to other frozen foods. It is important that you do not exceed the maximum freezing capacity of your Fridge Freezer, this will help to ensure that your food freezes as quickly as possible. The maximum freezing capacity for freezing within a 24 hour period is 18 kg. The storage durations of frozen food can be changed by a variety of factors, such as; the frequency of the doors opening and closing, thermostat settings, food types and the period of time that elapsed from when the food was acquired to the time it entered the freezer. It is important that you follow the packaging on frozen foods and do not exceed the storage duration. The table below contains some recommendations on freezing.

Food PreparationStorage Duration (Months)Thawing Period at Room Temperature (Hours)
Beef Steak Cut into singlele Portions 6-10 1-2 or until completely thawed
